letra de daedalus' confession - mytholo-g.

daedalus’ confession

in the end, it’s all payback
you take one step forward but two back
in your mind you can play it back
but you made your move, you can’t take it back

my name’s daedalus
i’m confessin’
k!lled my nephew; i was stressin’
he said “this fish spine’s a saw,”
knew right then he had to fall
adios, talos
pushed him off the side of a cliff
after all, i was miffed:
boy came up with a way to beat me;
unseat me?
he didn’t want to defeat me
he became my better–
i was unfettered
felt like bein’ tarred and feathered
second best is hard to weather

in the end, it’s all payback
you take one step forward but two back
in your mind you play it back
but you made your move, you can’t take it back
so i figure
he’s small time; i’m bigger
he’s short-lived; i’m a fixture
why not cut him out of the picture?

now, you see, there’s no dissension
i’m daedalus, master of invention

‘bout this, don’t feel no shame–
all i wanna do is bask in fame:
you think a rapper care ‘bout rhymin’?
he want to do some social climbin’
so what’s it worth to me—invention?
no contention–
i’ve got to be the star of the convention

in the end, it’s all payback
you take one step forward but two back
in your mind you play it back
but you made your move, you can’t take it back

oh yeah, you probably heard
athena turned talos into a bird
if i had a glock and bullet cartridge
that would’ve been one holy partridge
yeah, i would’a k!lled him twice:
sometimes once just doesn’t suffice
gods make men fly like birds
but man cannot, we are absurd
i told icarus, these wings attach with wax
and the gods, they don’t have our backs
but he flew too close to the sun for fun
that’s how i lost my only son

i’d bring talos back if i could;
if it would spare icarus, i would
but it’s too late for all that
you only get one chance at bat

in the end, it’s all payback
you take one step forward but two back
in your mind you can play it back
